Hotels in Guebwiller

Guebwiller sits at the foot of the Vosges, on the Route des Vins d'Alsace, and it's this wine-country setting rather than the town itself that draws most visitors — the surrounding villages of Soultzmatt and Rouffach, and the Grand Cru vineyards of the Kitterlé slopes, are the real reason to base yourself here.

The town has a handful of genuine sights, notably the Dominican church used for concerts and the Théodore Deck museum, but it's a working Alsatian town rather than a preserved showpiece like Colmar or Riquewihr, so don't expect wall-to-wall half-timbering. Be honest: there's little nightlife and evenings are quiet, which suits people here to hike the Vosges or tour vineyards rather than sightsee. Stay centrally near the old town if you want to walk to restaurants, since a car is otherwise essential for reaching the vineyards and mountain trails.
